I am just getting back into programming (again). I'm 62 and about 8 years ago I upgraded my old 2 year degree in data processing to a 4 year degree in information systems. I also obtained a couple of certifications in Python. There are not to many entry level jobs around here, in Python, and I couldn't land one for some reason so I gave up again. I got a day job as an assistant data processing coordinator which is a nice foundation and I work a second job which doesn't pay to well. I've been looking for a better second job and that's when I stumbled on Step. I have done some basic web work before, sold some websites and farmed out the commerce part of them. Since programming has been the plan since 1985 and before, I'm going to get back into it through the front end. It's been a while so I plan to start from the beginning, work hard, and get back into part time, probably freelancing to start. I have watched quite a few videos and am very impressed with Step. I like his no nonsense teaching style and he was giving what I deemed very good advice, in detail, about eating healthy, exercising, living within your means etc. Am I worried about starting programming at my age? Not at all! I can out run and out lift my 18 and 20 year old kids. I'm more worried about their unhealthy habits of eating carbs and sugar and not exercising.
